Fall in a second

Reality is always the cruelest, because it always presses your head and forces you to face things you don't want to face.

Regardless of whether you run away or not, it will always be there waiting for you. This is what Lu Ming learned from this incident.

Both she and Xia Yi knew that Ji Jingning would pass away in a short time, but they didn't want to face this topic, as if a short escape would be able to forget it for a short time, as if it didn't exist for the time being.

"After I die, all of you should take good care of you, and help me take good care of You Qing, especially you Lu Ming, my sister will be counting on you."

Lu Ming lowered her head and fiddled with her fingers, then nodded silently.

Xia Yi sniffed and looked up with a smile: "Sister, when I visit you next time, I will bring you the latest popular lipstick number."

"Okay." Ji Jingning smiled slightly, looking very happy, "You have to keep your word."

"Aunt Jingning, do you have anything you want to eat? I'll bring it for you next time." Lu Ming also asked, her voice faintly crying.

"I don't have anything in particular that I want to eat... There is one thing that has always been in my heart. Can you bring me a bowl of glutinous rice next time? I want something with red dates in it."

"No problem." Lu Ming smiled, "I will bring fresh hot glutinous rice over."

"Then I don't have any other requirements." Ji Jingning smiled with narrowed eyes, like a little girl who is very easy to satisfy at this moment.

An hour passed quickly, and the three of them were having fun chatting about homework, when the guard outside the door knocked on the door to indicate that it was time.

The sudden reminder caught both Lu Ming and Xia Yi by surprise, and they felt flustered. How did the time come so quickly? It seemed that it hadn't been long.

"No way, is it time so soon?" Xia Yi was puzzled.

Lu Ming looked down at the time, "Yeah, it's been an hour."

"It's okay, you two go back, I can see you today, and I can sleep well tonight." Ji Jingning said with a smile.

At this moment, the guard at the door knocked on the iron door with an electric baton as a reminder, Xia Yi and Lu Ming quickly stood up from the bed.

"Then Lu Ming and I will go back first, Miss Jingning."

"Aunt Jingning, let's go." Lu Ming said.

"Bye, be careful on the way back." Ji Jingning waved at them.

Reluctantly going out like this, Ji Jingning's eyes were on the two of them all the time, following them as they moved, until the two girls could no longer be seen, and after a while she couldn't wait to get up and come to the small window , trying to see them from here.

Xia Yi and Lu Ming were led out, the weather seemed to be better than when they went out, Xia Yi raised her head and let out a sigh of relief, then turned her head and asked Lu Ming: "Do you have any ideas?"

Lu Ming shook her head, pursed her lips and didn't know what to say, but anyway, she felt quite heavy.

"Eldest sister's mentality is relatively good, I admire her very much." Xia Yi said.

"I think she should have seen it through." Lu Ming said lightly.

Just like that, they were taken out of the nursing home. The police officers told them to leave the place as soon as possible and not to stay too long. After returning to the car in a hurry, Xia Yi suddenly patted her thigh and said: "Oops, I forgot one thing."

"What's wrong with you, Miss Xia Yi." Lu Ming asked.

"Should have taken a group photo with Eldest Sister." Xia Yi felt a little regretful.

"You don't need to do this, I think Aunt Jing Ning might not want to take a picture of her current appearance." Lu Ming murmured.

"That's right, Eldest Sister is such a beauty-loving person... Forget it, let's keep her image as an Eldest Sister in our hearts." Xia Yi finished speaking and started the car and said, "Let's go, I'm going back."

"I've never seen my eldest sister pay so much attention to anyone. You are the first." Xia Yi said seriously.

Lu Ming smiled flattered.

After another two hours' drive, Xia Yi sent Lu Ming back to the school gate, and when she was about to get off the car, she suddenly asked, "Shall we have dinner together tonight?"

"Ah?" Lu Ming was a little puzzled.

"As for me, I'll just do a good deed and help you get sister Youqing out." Xia Yi smirked.

Lu Ming was very pleasantly surprised after hearing this, but couldn't help but wonder in the next second: "Aunt Ji will really come out, will she refuse when she hears that I'm here?"

"Well...you don't need to worry about this, I have my own way, there is almost [-]% hope." Xia Yi paused and said, "Just wait for my news, and I will send you the address location when the time comes, you Come here yourself."

"Okay." Lu Ming nodded and smiled.

In the evening, Xia Yi found a Chinese restaurant and booked a private room. She sat in it and waited, then picked up her mobile phone and sent a message to Ji Youqing.

Xia Yi: Sister Youqing, can you come tonight? I'm going to see my eldest sister today. I want to talk to you about something.

Not long after the message was sent, the other party replied.

Ji Youqing: Address.

Xia Yi was overjoyed, and quickly replied: I'll be waiting for you here, sister, drive slowly on the road, don't worry.

Then Xia Yi hurriedly called Lu Ming and asked her to come over quickly, she had already helped to contact Ji Youqing.

Of course Lu Ming was in a hurry, closed the book without saying a word, ran to the health care house, looked in the mirror to sort out her appearance, picked out a pair of cleanest white shoes to put on, and set off full of energy.

It seems that he has forgotten the unhappiness before, and now Lu Ming's mind is full of the person he likes, and the corners of his mouth can't help but rise when he thinks that he will see her soon.

After coming down from the dormitory building, she ran all the way, letting the wind blow her forehead hair back. After arriving outside the school gate, Lu Ming waited for a while, and couldn't wait to stop a passing taxi. She usually asked her to go out and take a taxi. She is reluctant, but today is different, she just wants to hurry up.

After getting in the car, he reported his destination to the driver, and Lu Ming immediately turned on the navigation on his mobile phone, watching the distance between himself and the destination gradually shorten.

Xia Yi: Have you set off yet?

A WeChat message popped up from the top of the phone, and Lu Ming clicked on it to reply: I'm already in the car, and I'm expected to arrive in 10 minutes, is Aunt Ji here yet?

Xia Yi: Not yet, I told her to come over slowly, she probably won't arrive before you.

Who knows that within a few seconds after the news was sent, the door of the private room was pushed open, and Ji Youqing leaned in, Xia Yi was so frightened that she was at a loss.

"Sister, you, why are you so fast."

Seeing Xia Yi's flustered appearance, Ji Youqing replied: "When I received your message, I was waiting for a red light, and I came straight over when I saw the address."

"Okay, okay, sister, come and sit down." After Xia Yi finished speaking, she quickly lowered her head and hugged her phone to send Lu Ming an urgent message.

Xia Yi: Not good, she has already arrived.

"What's the matter, just tell me, I can bear it." Ji Youqing clasped his hands together, and was mentally prepared.

Xia Yi chuckled and quickly put away the phone and said: "Sister, let's not worry, the food here is said to be very good, let's order and sit down and chat while eating."

Lu Ming received the message from Miss Xia Yi, and quickly raised her head to look forward and asked, "Master driver, how long is it before we arrive?"

"There's no way around the traffic jam now, it will take at least 5 minutes."

"5 minutes..." Lu Ming murmured in a low voice, wondering if sister Xia Yi could help her wait until these 5 minutes.

Xia Yi calmly ordered a large table full of dishes, arranging vigorously by herself, which aroused Ji Yuqing's doubts.

"We two don't need to order so many dishes for dinner."

"It's okay, if you can't finish eating, you can take it away, it will never be wasted." Xia Yi said with a smile.

Ji Youqing still saw through her, and said directly: "Is there anyone else coming over later?"

Xia Yi lowered her head to tidy up and did not respond to her words, Ji Youqing continued to ask: "Xia Yi, you asked me out today, you have other purpose."

"Sister, am I that kind of person? You think of me." Xia Yi avoided Ji Yuqing's eyes and smiled awkwardly.

Ji Youqing gradually lost his patience after sitting for a while, looked down at his watch and said to Xia Yi: "It's been 5 minutes."

Xia Yi was also anxious, why Lu Ming hadn't arrived yet, just as she was thinking this way, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and the two people inside turned their heads to look at it at the same time.

The next second, Lu Ming opened the door and poked her head in first. Sister Xia Yi and Aunt Ji were both there, and she pursed her lips to say hello.

"Aunt Ji, and sister Xia Yi."

"Lu Ming, you are here, come in and sit down." Xia Yi pretended to be surprised, and immediately stood up to greet her.

At this moment, Ji Youqing cast an unceremonious look at her, and Xia Yi felt extremely guilty.

Lu Ming didn't directly choose the seat next to Aunt Ji, but went to sit opposite her, so that she could see her more clearly and wouldn't make her feel disgusted.

Ji Youqing suddenly understood what was going on, stared at Xia Yi, and wanted her to give an explanation, but Xia Yi was also very bad, deliberately avoiding her eyes, pretending to ask Lu Ming how he came here, whether there was a traffic jam, etc. , and at the same time holding the mobile phone with one hand and sending a message to Xie Xuan under the table, cooperating inside and outside.

Ji Youqing wanted to leave a little bit, such a scene made people a little embarrassed, but she didn't expect that just as she was about to get up to talk about it, Xia Yi's cell phone rang, and she immediately stood up to answer it, her voice was not low, as if she wanted to deliberately Let the people present hear: "What? Are you going to go now? Can you change someone, do you have to me? This... I still have a round here, there is no way, okay, okay, I will go right away .”

After hanging up the phone, Xia Yi spread her hands with regret and said, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry, how about you two eat this meal, Lu Ming, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Lu Ming sat upright and smiled brightly.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Yi asked again: "Sister Yuqing, are you okay?"

Ji Youqing didn't speak, she had already seen through her tricks.

Xia Yi doesn't dare to stay here to avoid harming the innocent, anyway, she has already helped Lu Ming achieve this step, and the rest is up to her.

"In this case, I'll hurry over first, you guys eat well, eat slowly." Xia Yi hurriedly left the private room with her mobile phone after speaking.

As the door of the private room was closed, only Lu Ming and Ji Youqing were left inside.

Lu Ming took a peek at her, Auntie Ji wearing professional attire like this is rare, and she is quite charming. I haven't seen her for a while, but she still can't stop her little pink bubbles from bubbling out.

"Have you got your driver's license?" Ji Youqing asked, a bit like a boss asking a subordinate.

"Well, I got it last week." Lu Ming replied.

"En." Ji Youqing nodded, and the two became speechless again.

"How are you recently, are you eating well, are you sleeping well?" Lu Ming asked with a low voice.

"It's been pretty good recently." After Ji Youqing finished speaking, she lowered her head, not showing Lu Ming the expression on her face.

As if hot liquid was stuck in her throat, upon hearing her answer, Lu Ming suddenly didn't know what to say. Is it better because of her absence, or is it right to have her without her? Aunt Ji's life has no impact.

Ji Yuqing took a sip of tea with her head buried in her head, and then pretended to be acquainted and asked, "You and Qi Nansheng have been doing well recently, haven't you?"

Lu Ming was full of doubts, not knowing what Aunt Ji meant by saying this.

"Senior sister and I have met a few times recently, but we..."

Before finishing speaking, Ji Yuqing interrupted with a smile: "You two are very good together, I mean seriously, she is so young and promising, she is very suitable for you."

"No." Lu Ming shook her head, "I don't mean that to senior sister, I just treat her as a friend."

"Lu Ming." Ji Youqing suddenly called her name, looked at her seriously and said, "I think she is quite suitable for you." After speaking, she pursed her lips and smiled.

At least, more suitable than me.

But to Lu Ming's ears, it was as if a knife had been stabbed in her chest.

For the first time, Lu Ming's eyes were filled with water vapor, she bit her lower lip and trembled slightly, "But, the person I like is you, Aunt Ji, and it has always been you."

Hearing this, Ji Youqing smiled, and gradually lowered her eyes, so that Lu Ming would not notice the sparkle in her eyes, she lowered her head and murmured: "People like me are not worthy of your liking, I hope you To be able to be with Qi Nansheng, I also sincerely wish you both."

Saying this, Ji Youqing felt really uncomfortable, and she didn't know why she felt this way, maybe she was really moved, at a certain moment that she couldn't even notice.

Lu Ming shook her head desperately, clutching the tablecloth under the table tightly with both hands, "I don't want to be with her, I just want to be with you, Aunt Ji, I want to marry you, and I want to take care of you for the rest of my life."

Ji Youqing laughed again, lowered her head and quickly sorted out her emotions, then raised her head and said to her: "I don't want to see you get hurt for me again."

"I'm already taking self-defense courses. Sister Xia Yi helped me to sign up. I promise I won't get hurt again in the future. I just want to protect you. I just want to protect you." Lu Ming murmured.

"Some things, let's talk about it all at once today." Ji Youqing looked into Lu Ming's eyes, and said seriously: "Lu Ming, you are a very good child, kind, upright, innocent, and youthful. I think we can To be friends, just not suitable to be lovers."

Maybe because he was emotional, Lu Ming stood up directly, poured the white wine on the table into his own glass, and gulped it down in one gulp.

Then put down the wine glass and said with red eyes: "But I don't want to be friends with you, Aunt Ji, except for my lover!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Ming left the private room without looking back.

At that moment, Ji Youqing was still a little dazed, she hadn't reacted yet, and when she did, she quickly got up with her bag and chased him out.

When he came out of the restaurant, Ji Youqing was very anxious. Looking back now, did the child just drink a big glass of white wine in front of her?She who never drank baijiu, she who can even get drunk with beer, actually drank a big glass of baijiu, Ji Youqing was frightened.

He hurriedly came out and looked around, and saw a stumbling figure on the road in one direction, and Ji Youqing chased him all the way.

Because of drinking strong alcohol, Lu Ming is now dizzy and dizzy, his whole face is flushed and hot, and tears can't stop streaming down, so I don't want to be friends with you, I don't want to!She silently recited this sentence in her heart.

"Lu Ming!" Ji Youqing caught up with her, stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder, forcing the girl to turn around and face her, unexpectedly, a poor little crying man came into view, Ji Youqing's heart ached. She softened all of a sudden, and she even wondered if she was a big villain who made this child so sad.

"I don't want to be friends with you, don't, don't..." Lu Ming slipped into Ji Yuqing's arms without saying a word, wrapped her arms around her waist tightly, and murmured these few words repeatedly.

For a moment, Ji Youqing's hands froze in mid-air, a little at a loss.
